Horizontal gene transfer constrains the timing of methanogen evolution
Microbial methanogenesis may have been a major component of Earth's carbon cycle during the Archaean eon, generating a methane greenhouse that increased global temperatures enough for a liquid hydrosphere, despite the Sun's lower luminosity at the time. Evaluation of potential solutions to...
